Yesterday, when I posted The Only Game Video You Need to Watch, of course I starting listening to mad Willie Hutch tracks.
Then I remembered Poppin’ My Collar which sampled Willie Hutch’s “The Theme From The Mack”:
I had never seen the video before. But I saw some solid lessons there.
I know many people are having a tough time stacking chips in the Down Economy, and these little hustlers at the beginning of the video really show The Art of Selling.
They use a great opener, get right down to biz, offer a solution, compliment the buyer, Then Close Hard.
I really love that closing line; “So, are you gonna help us brothers out, Or What?”
Its a real universal closing line that you can almost use in any situation:
“So, are you going to buy these packs of gum, Or What?”
“So, are you going to buy these IPhones, Or What?”
“So, are you going to buy these E-Tabs, Or What?”
“So, are you going to buy these Kalashnikovs, Or What?”
“So, are you going to buy these semi-conductors, Or What?
“So, are you going to buy these 7 million barrels of Oil everyday, Or What?”
“So, are you going to let me swoop you, Or What?”
You get the point.
Strong Game. Reminds me of when I was a young pup.

Good Music.
The hard sell and close work best in those situations.

Well, G, any ideas on how to exploit the chaos/property destruction in HAITI to print a few cash? During 9/11. i went short as soon i was able. Same with the attack on London; the recent christmass terrorist threat i exploited by going short a few airline companies to quick profit. After New Orleans mess, i shorted insurance companies(particularly the ones with exposure to the region) and went long OIL and construction companies like haliburton. Same with avian flu scares and iraq war.
Any ideas about HAITI?

Children in the Ghetto have more knowledge about persuasion/influence/hustling then most Ivy League students will ever have! Its tough to learn this shit out of a book…
“3 6 Mafia” are some of the greatest hustlers in the entertainment business….from “creepy/satanic” lyrics and beats…to underground artistic/hustler music…to Grammy award winning mainstream hip hop artists…they did it the old fashioned way….TONS OF HUSTLERS INSTINCT, TONS OF HARD WORD, TONS OF CREATIVITY, TONS OF PERSISTENCE…never afraid to reinvent themselves…never sold out their music…stayed independent almost the whole way…kept their eyes on the prize!!! REAL AMERICAN HEROES…started from nothing!
